Three yobs vandalised a cash point/phone kiosk in the city centre during an "evening of madness", a court heard.

Ryan Hendry, 19, Damion Robert Hadley, 19, and Jordan Dean Sleightholme, 20, were all involved in the night of chaos on May 21 this year.

They caused damage to the cash point owned by Cash Zone to the tune of £1070 after throwing bricks at it.

Now they have appeared at Lincoln Magistrates Court on Thursday, July 4 to face justice for their offences.

Hendry, from Honington Crescent, Lincoln, admitted breaking the kiosk's phone receiver, valued at £172, and also pleaded guilty to 'going equipped for theft' to break into cars because he had been caught in possession of a pair of scissors.

"He's a young man with a number of issues and mental health concerns and he's medicated for ADHD, autistic and undergoing assessment for schizophrenia - he would not have got involved in this if he was on his own.

"He lives with his mum and he has a caring role at a very young age and it's a very difficult home life.

"He accepts his behaviour was unacceptable.

"He was asked to carry the scissors with a view to breaking into motor vehicles - but this never happened.
